Steve Jobs is alot of things, if not completely devoid of making interesting titles for his applications.

The PowerPC version from Software Update is 180MB. The link on the article is for a 343MB combo updater that will handle all versions of Leopard updating them to X.5.2.

Dial up users, we'll hear from you next month...

Got my new 20” iMac up and running this afternoon. There is a lot to digest updating from 10.3.9 to 10.5.1. Having a problem with my Web Mail account recognizing my user name and password but my Eudora mail is fine. I like to screen my incoming on the ISP mail server before downloading. I’m still using Camino for my primary browser but I will take Safari and FireFox for a spin later...

Just did it. For 300+ MB it didn’t take long to install, several minutes and a restart.

Now if Microsoft would just get around to a simple update to Office 2008 (Mac) to address the crashing issues...

I'm a new Mac owner—just got the 17 inch Macbook Pro and so far I love it. It's a 2.6Ghz with 2GB of RAM that I want to upgrade to 4GB. Not that it's needed... not at all, but because I can. ;-)

Unfortunately I don't have much time to check out all the different features and applications. Eventually I'll give the wife a 24 inch iMac and the kids a 20 inch iMac. We won't be purchasing any additional Microsoft systems.

I have Vista on one system and it's slow considering it has dual 3.2Ghz and 3GB of memory.

If Linux had the Mac GUI I'd stick with Linux. But for the style, beauty, speed, reliability, ease of use, etc of the Mac, we'll migrate to Mac and leave Microsoft behind.

Question ... What’s a “panic” ?

as in “Resolves certain kernel panics.”

Reference bookmark.

Will this update occur automatically, or should one do it manually?
